Visit to Steamboat

We've been in Steamboat Springs, CO since March 1 visiting Grandma Carol and Grandpa Rick. Its an annual trip we make to get some skiiing/riding in and to celebrate Carol's birthday on March 6. Aunt Anna & Uncle Nick came out for 5 days and we overlapped with Aunt Meaghan for several days as well. We've had lots of sun and snow - a perfect combination! The other day we took Jackson on a hike along the Yampa River. He walked most of the way and then caught a sled ride on the way back. We stopped for a while to watch a couple of Chocolate Labs jump into the river to catch snowballs and checked out some cows (and a tractor) on a farm in the distance. Last March he cried when we snowshoed this trail and towed him behind us in the sled so we had to carry him the whole way. It's a good thing he liked it this year because he has put on some weight since then!

What an amazing trip! Glad to hear that Jackson enjoys the snow. He'll be skiing before you know it!
